How to pass session variables via the URL in CF10?

Hi
I have a client with some old Flash functionality (AS2). The SWF allows the user to upload an image. However a new session is being started when the upload script is called. I have added the CFID, CFTOKEN and JSESSIONID to the URL as I did in the past to maintain the session but I believe you cannot do this anymore with CF10, if this is correct can anyone point me in the right direction of how I would accomplish maintaining the session for the upload?
This has a note about CF 10 - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1178420
Kind regards
Shaun

Hi Shaun
Are you facing the same issue with all the browsers?
Thanks

How to pass session variable value with GO URL to override session value

Hi Gurus,
We have below requirement.Please help us at the earliest.
How to pass session variable value with GO URL to override session value. ( It is not working after making changes to authentication xml file session init block creation as explained by oracle (Bug No14372679 : which they claim it is fixed in 1.7 version Ref No :Bug 14372679 : REQUEST VARIABLE NOT OVERRIDING SESSION VARIABLE RUNNING THRU A GO URL )
Please provide step by step solution.No vague answers.
I followed below steps mentioned.
RPD:
****-> Created a session variable called STATUS
-> Create Session Init block called Init_Status with SQL
select 'ACTIVE' from dual;
-> Assigned the session variable STATUS to Init block Init_Status
authenticationschemas.xml:
Added
<RequestVariable source="url" type="informational"
nameInSource="RE_CODE" biVariableName="NQ_SESSION.STATUS"/>
Report
Edit column "Contract Status" and added session variable as
VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.STATUS)
URL:
http://localhost:9704/analytics/saw.dll?PortalGo&Action=prompt&path=%2Fshared%2FQAV%2FTest_Report_By%20Contract%20Status&RE_CODE='EXPIRED'
Issue:
When I run the URL above with parameter EXPIRED, the report still shows for ACTIVE only. The URL is not making any difference with report.
Report is picking the default value from RPD session variable init query.
could you please let me know if I am missing something.

ISQL*PLUS dynamic reports - how to pass connect string in the URL

When we run dynamic reports thru ISQL*PLUS, does anyone know how
to pass the connect string info in the URL
The following is the code from ISQL*PLUS users guide but it
dosen't show how to pass the connect string
when I tried to pass hr/your_secret_password@dbserver for userid
I got an error msg
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>iSQL*Plus Dynamic Report</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1>iSQL*Plus Report</H1>
<H2>Query by Employee ID</H2>
<FORM METHOD=get ACTION="http://host.domain/isqlplus">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="userid"
VALUE="hr/your_secret_password">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="script"
VALUE="http://host.domain/employee_id.sql">
Enter employee identification number: <INPUT TYPE="text"
NAME="eid" SIZE="10">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Run Report">
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks
Jay

The form you use should work when your change
"hr/your_secret_password" to a valid username, password
and connect identifier like "hr/hr@MYDB". Don't forget to
configure MYDB in your tnsnames.ora file on the machine that has
the iSQL*Plus server.
What was the error you got?
The full URL syntax did seem to go missing from the 9.0.1 doc.
See below for the full syntax. This should be appearing in a
forthcoming FAQ.
- CJ
What syntax can I use to run an iSQL*Plus Dynamic Report?
You can run a dynamic report by entering the report URI in the
location field of your browser, or by making the report server a
link or the action for an HTML form. The iSQL*Plus 9i Release 1
documentation has examples of these.
The general syntax for running a dynamic report is:
{uri}?[userid=logon&]script=location[&param...]
where uri
Represents the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
of the iSQL*Plus Server, for example:
http://host.domain/isqlplus
where logon
Represents the log in to the database to which you
want to connect:
{username[/password][@connect_identifier]}
where location
Represents the URI of the script you want to run.
The syntax is:
http://[host.domain/script_name]
The host serving the script does not have to be
the same as the machine running the iSQL*Plus server.
where param
Specifies the named parameters for the script you
want to run.
Named parameters consist of varname=value pairs.
iSQL*Plus will define the variable varname to equal value prior
to executing the script e.g.
...script=http://server/s1.sql&var1=hello&var2=world
This is equivalent to the SQL*Plus commands:
SQL> define var1=hello
SQL> define var2=world
SQL> @http://server/s1.sql
iSQL*Plus, SQL*Plus and SQL keywords are reserved
and must not be used as the variable names (varname). Note also,
that since variables are delimited by the ampersand character,
there is no requirement to enclose space delimited values with
quotes. However, to embed the ampersand character itself in the
value, it will be necessary to use quotes.
For compatibility with older scripts using the &1
variable syntax, varname may be replaced with the equivalent
variable position as in:
...script=http://server/s1.sql&1=hello&2=world
Note the & is the URL parameter separator and not
related to the script's substitution variable syntax.
Commands and script parameters may be given in any
order in the dynamic report URI. However, please note that if any
parameters begin with reserved keywords such as "script" or
"userid" then it may be interpreted as a command rather than a
literal parameter.

How to pass in variables using the command line when starting ActionScript native app

How do I pass in variables or startup arguments using the command line when starting an ActionScript native app? For example, I have my app call MySweetWidget and it has been compiled with Adobe AIR captive runtime so now I have MySweetWidget.exe.
In the command line, I am calling MySweetWidget.exe and would like to pass in variables or properties to the application. I would assume that those variables are then read from the loaderInfo.parameters object.
Please let me know if the Adobe AIR runtime supports passing in parameters to the native runtime. If so, I would like help determining the correct format of how to pass in the variables. Then would you read those from the loaderinfo.parameters object?
Thanks,
Jeff

I found the answer to my own question:
Yes it is a supported feature. It is documented on the following page:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/desktop/NativeApp lication.html#event:invoke
When you subscribe to the invoke event of the NativeApplication it will subsequently dispatch the event and you read the e.arguments Array object to get the startup arguments passed into the native application.

How to pass many variables to servlet using a URL? Ajax related.

I have 100 text boxes in my JSP and want to pass the values stored in these text boxes to a servlet with out the need for submitting the entire page using AJAX frame work.
I know how to peform the above in ajax if I have only 1 textbox. But how can I do that with 100 text boxes. I don't want to build a huge URL with 100 parameters.
I am thinking may be create an array and send it to the servlet, but don't have an idea if we can do it.
Please help me .

You can make a POST request using an XMLHttpRequest, but you won't be "passing many variables using a URL", which seems to be one of your requirements, and which makes your question confounding(after all how do you pass many variables using a URL without putting many variables in the URL):
req.open("POST", url, true)
req.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
req.send("first=Eric&last=Kaiser");

Hi Sutrtha,
Yeah I got the pop up asking to select the variables used, I have selected ENTITY_ID that was used by the interfaces, but on execution of the package the Scenario did not work as the passeed variable #ENTITY_ID is set to 0 instead of the value I am passing.
Am I missing something?

How can I include a captivate variable in the URL of the website widget?

I am using the website widget to bring up some customized content during the course.
The URL contains a variable which will be different for every user.
I can't find the option of including a variable in the URL with the widget.
Has any figured out how to accomplish this?

I am using Cp8.
I publish in both swf and html5 formats so that the course functions on all device platforms.
A swf only solution would preclude IOS since it doesn't support flash.

Passing two variables in the body of the URL using the go to detail page SB in ASP

Hi all,
Would appreciate your assistance with the following, I'm
trying to set up a go to detail page sb that passes two variable in
the body of the URL rather than the standard one.
The code i've tried is -
<td><A HREF="gggggggtest.asp?<%=
Server.HTMLEncode(MM_keepNone) + ((MM_keepNone!="")?"&":"") +
"PCL2ID=" + othermenutwo.Fields.Item("PCL2ID").Value
%>&"PCL1ID=" +
othermenutwo.Fields.Item("PCL2PC1ID").Value
%><%=(othermenutwo.Fields.Item("PCL2Description").Value)%></A></td>
Where the PCL1ID and the PCL2ID are the variables
The normal code generated by the go to detail page sb with
one variable is -
<td><a href="ggggggtest.asp?<%=
Server.HTMLEncode(MM_keepNone) + ((MM_keepNone!="")?"&":"") +
"PCL2ID=" + othermenutwo.Fields.Item("PCL2ID").Value
%>"><%=(othermenutwo.Fields.Item("PCL2Description").Value)%></a></td>
Unfortunatley my code tweaking isn't working as the second
variable isn't being sent, any help would be gratefully appreciated
Thanks

Instead of using DW's 'go to detail page' option, simply set
up the link the manual way in DW using the Link browser. Select the
file you want to link to and then use the parameters button at the
bottom of the 'Select File' dialogue to set the parameters to be
passed with the link. You can then manually set the name of the
parameter to be passed and then select its value from a recordset.
The key thing is that you can set as many parameters as you like,
so you can set both the parameters you want.
On the detail page you then filter by the parameter name you
chose (or both).
Personally I always code links this way rather than using the
go to detail page option as you get much better control of what is
going on.

How to pass a variable from HTML to Flash

I have built my flash ad banner in Flash 9 and now want the
HTML code to pass the url over to the flash movie that it should
jump to when clicked.
The info in the help file seems out of date for the latest
HTML template as it uses mainly JavaScript to get round IE's
dreadful embeding issue. So my problem is, how do I pass a variable
from the HTML to the actionScript specified int he Help file
(running on a full screen button) as shown below?
myButton_btn.onRelease = function() {
if (clickTAG.substr(0, 5) == "http:") {
getURL(clickTAG);
via the html code now used by Flash 9 which is like this:

<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Advert_long</title>
<script language="javascript"> AC_FL_RunContent = 0;

<script language="javascript"> DetectFlashVer = 0;
</script>
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js"

You should use SWFObject to embed your Flash. Not only does
it make
embedding more straightforward, it makes passing query

How to pass checkbox multiple value in URL as parameter?

Hello,
I have a checkbox in two page. The checkbox is based on a LOV and user can check more than one value at a time. The return value of the checkbox is like "ID1:ID2".
I want to call another page with the same checkbox item and want to pass the checked value via the URL.
This cause problem because checked value are separated with : that not work in URL.
So, how can I pass checkbox multiple value in parameter via an URL?
Thanks
Jean

Jean,
Why pass it in a URL instead of just using what's in session state? On your second page, set the Source Type of the check box item to ITEM and enter the name of the check box item on the first page.
